Synopsis:

There has been a movement throughout the fashion industry over the past ten years towards new types of materials to replace leather. Companies have been using vinyl, rubber and micro fibres for their expensive, fashionable and sought-after products. Prada and Coach have also been experimenting with micro-fibres, rubber and combinations of distinctive materials for their latest trendy products as well. This book explores how these different types of materials can be used to create one-of-a-kind trendy items for the home sewer. The projects cater to all ages and degrees of difficulty, and materials are easy to find at traditional fabric stores.
